Burner Tube Placement on Orifice

WARNING: The burner tubes must be installed as described above. Make sure that the notch on each burner tube is locked into the rear burner base panel, Figure 64. Failure to properly install the burner tubes could result in a fire or explosion causing extensive property damage, severe personal injury or death!

JACKET INSTALLATION

Bolt the jacket brackets found in Box 63273 to the lower rear flange of the burner base side panels, Figure 66.

NOTE: Before installing the jacket, any nipples, steam risers or short pieces of pipe that will penetrate the jacket should be installed in the cast iron sections. Do not attach any fittings or other devices that would prevent the jacket panels from fitting over them.

NOTE: There are two jacket boxes for the 5 through 12 section models.The 13 through 21 section models will come with 4 jacket boxes.

Open the Box(s) that are marked with a number from 55177 to 55184, Jacket Less Sides, Figure 67, and remove the jacket rear panel(s).
